About the Limited Edition: Physique Magazine Pictures
Physique Magazine Pictures is a series that digs deep into Jonah Samson’s collection of vintage pop culture ephemera – specifically his carefully sourced holdings of rare, midcentury homoerotica. A popular favourite in recent SNAP auctions, Samson generously agreed to make this Limited Edition especially for our dedicated audience, donating three prints each of four different compositions. Due to the nature of the cyanotype process, each of these 12 prints is truly unique, showing subtle variations in each individual artwork.
